Yes, the thread was removed. I don't have any info on why it was removed but my guess would be since the thread was just going and on and getting no where.

That could be said for a lot of tank build or lounge threads here as well. The entire point for the thread to continue on like it did, was only to fill time until people started getting their stuff. Shortly after some people got their stuff and posted about it, the thread was closed without a discussion, reason, or warning.

Juvenile and offensive comments were present in the thread, so instead of just closing the thread, we took the time to remove it from public view, clean up the offending comments, and move it back.

I am deeply sorry that I did so without discussion, reason or warning. I have no idea what I was thinking.

You might want to look up the word sarcasm.

It is already back.

I assume you are joking about "letting everyone know".

Listen guys, I'm having as much fun as anyone in that thread, but if it gets pulled because of bad behavior, I'll get over it.
